Beschreibung
In October 1799, the Russian corps Suvorov marched to Graubünden in Graubünden. This was intended to come to the aid of the Austrians in Switzerland from Italy. With difficulty, the troops reached Altdorf via the Gotthard. Here Lecourbe refused to march on to northern Switzerland. Then Suvorov made that memorable retreat over the Kinzigkulm, the Pragel and Panixer passes into the Surselva. He had directed the heavy trains through the Adige Valley, Tyrol and Vorarlberg, the heavy artillery via Como through the Bergell and the Engadin to Maienfeld and as a replacement from Austrian arsenals in Italy 25 mountain guns. These were partly buried during the crossing over the Panixer Pass, partly plunged into abysses. On October 10, the rest of suvorov's corps was in Ilanz, exhausted by the efforts and privations and in a wretched state. In the following days they marched down the valley, past Chur and Maienfeld back to Vorarlberg.
This event is commemorated by a commemorative plaque attached to Suvorov's house in Pigniu.
